Another great Sunday Amped gig, early July.
This time at Bar Vinyl in Camden Town.
A celebration of burgeoning North London musical talent! (Not fashion fakery, lip-syncing and dance routines)…

Four gigs in a week
Above features a shot of three ex-BEAT and Woodhouse students. In the middle on lead guitar is Michael Jablonka, who has gone on to play for several famous names, not to mention fronting his own excellent band, The Dark Tides.
FOUR GIGS THIS WEEK:
Monday 1st July to Monday 8th July
1. Kiss The Sky (last night): great warm-up for the week ahead.
Fantastic people there like vocalist Jessie Pie & Jonny Rogers, the lovely jazz singer Priscilla Andersohn (who I met for the first time). As well as a certain Tony Kirkland of Fortismere who taught Michael Kiwanuka and my former jazz student (now famous for ‘Being A Dickhead’s Cool’), Reuben Dangoor.
Setlist:
‘Shine’
‘Dancing Queen’ (renamed ‘Crouch End Queen (only 33)’ for the occasion)
‘Lady Day & John Coltrane’
2. ‘Amped Acoustic’ (Wed July 3rd):
Warm-up gig next to the social area post-‘farewell Esther Gelling Summer Concert’ in hall.
All Woodhouse and BEAT students did a lovely job in preparation for Amped.
Particularly nice performances from Amy Taylor (fellow Amy’s ‘Tears Dry’ closer to the set), Emma Buchanan (great backing vocals with Annabelle De Lord), Juliana Brooke (nice intimate sound to her voice and good stage presence), and Daniella Biggins who is gaining in stage confidence all the time.
3. ‘Amped’ – COMING SOON TO BAR SOLO, CAMDEN THIS SUNDAY 7th!
4. ‘The Gallery’: Danny performs solo set, followed by Sadie Alleyne, culminating in Zaid Joseph’s barnstomping finale!
COMING SOON TO THE GALLERY, AN AMAZING NEW NIGHTCLUB IN HENDON, NW LONDON THIS MONDAY 8th,
Kind of a busy week, then…
Sadie Alleyne is featured below at a recent Bar Solo gig:
Featured are two shots from a previous Amped gig at The Music Palace, Crouch End, N8:
It should be even better this year as I shall be inducting the young dudes and dudettes to the Camden Crawl…albeit for an afternoon start time…
Music Technology students from Woodhouse College and BEAT, the educational charity, will be performing an afternoon gig at this lovely Camden venue.
Always an interesting experience when you get a bunch of music-hungry 17 year old girls and boys in a venue for their first proper live experience.
All welcome!

Studying With Danny
Here’s a Woodhouse / BEAT newsletter from one of our star students, Christofer Christoforou:
I’ll be on stage from 7.45pm.
I’m looking forward to it. Will be trying out a couple of new songs: ‘Click On My Name’ and ‘I Write This Song’
